I want to build up a sweet-super light single speed (not fixed gear) bike. I've found that I really like the simplicity of it and having one moderate gear ratio suits my riding style well.
I'm curious if anybody can recommend a frame that meets the following criteria:[LIST][*]Super stiff Carbon Frame[*]Horizontal Dropouts[*]Integrated seat mast
Or....would it be better to get a standard road frame with vertical dropouts and get a spacer kit for the rear wheel? I would be concerned about chain tension then, I would think.
The one advantage to a standard road frame with vertical dropouts would be that if I got tired of the single speed set up, I won't have painted myself into a corner and could easily convert back to a geared road set-up.
Comments..??
